I kinda wanna see @Shaul try and defend a Christian theocracy for the US, and banning gay sex. Only because it will be a circus.

Compared to Europe? No. But politics are local. And I would say that there are several Democrats that could be called staunch leftists.

Compared to, you say.

I've an uncle late of the Red Guard.

I actually had to google images to find
what you were finding yucky.

I've only eaten a much larger kind, which
is prepared as only the five longitudinal
muscles, each about the size of a pencil.

Nothing in appearance, taste or texture
would be anything but a rare pleasure. Except
for someone with, you know, issues.

Like me. If you tried to get me to eat meat. :D
